For the eighth consecutive year, Baker Group, an MCAA member, has been named a winner of the State of Iowa Top Workplaces award. This recognition underscores Baker Group’s commitment to fostering a positive workplace culture. The Iowa Top Workplaces list is published by the Des Moines Register based solely on employee feedback measuring multiple culture drivers that are critical to the success of any organization. MCAA congratulates the entire Baker Group team creating this culture for success.

“At Baker Group, we invest in the well-being and growth of our employees, knowing that they are the heart of our success,” said Gary Bridgewater, Baker Group CEO. “This recognition is a testament to the incredible team and their dedication to our clients, our colleagues, and our work and to be acknowledged as a top workplace for the eighth year is an honor.”

Baker Group continues to expand its footprint in the Midwest and remains dedicated to delivering high-quality service while nurturing a workplace culture that promotes collaboration, innovation, and career development.
